    $T_2 = \infty$
  • B
    $T_2 = T_1$
  • C
    $T_2 < T_1$

$A$ simple pendulum of time period $1\,s$ and length $l$ is hung from a fixed support at $O$. The bob is at a distance $H$ vertically above $A$ on the ground. The amplitude is $\theta_0$. The string snaps at $\theta = \frac{\theta_0}{2}$. Find the time taken by the bob to hit the ground and the distance from $A$ where the bob hits the ground. Assume $\theta_0$ to be small,so that $\sin \theta_0 \approx \theta_0$ and $\cos \theta_0 \approx 1$.

$A$ girl is swinging on a swing in the sitting position. What will be the effect on the time period of the swing if she stands up?

$A$ mass falls from a height $h$ and its time of fall $t$ is recorded in terms of time period $T$ of a simple pendulum. On the surface of the Earth,it is found that $t = 2T$. The entire setup is taken to the surface of another planet whose mass is half that of the Earth and radius is the same. The same experiment is repeated and corresponding times are noted as $t'$ and $T'$.

$A$ simple pendulum is placed inside a lift, which is moving with a uniform acceleration. If the time periods of the pendulum while the lift is moving upwards and downwards are in the ratio $1: 2$, then the acceleration of the lift is (Acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
